I have now read EVERY ONE of these posts (oh and walked on the beach, done a grocery shop, retrieved my daughter’s coat she left behind at the swimming pool, and finished reading a book…in case you think I am a slow blog reader!!!) and I wished I had stopped to comment on each and every one of them. But all those comments at once might have been too much excitement, so this one comment will have to do.

I loved them all, but was most moved by Grace’s story, and the romantic ones too!

See you next year (I love saying that on New Year’s Eve). Hope it is a good one.

I am dying for you!!- The Super Glue!!! Do you know how many times I have handed my kiddos something- anything! to get them to leave me alone for 5 seconds while I finish a call or finish reading?!!?? Maybe, say, a black sharpie…at my MILs…with white couches…

So, rereading some of the faves and two of your posts move me to tears. I sniffle and cry mother’s tears for the “Grace” post but “My Ugly Year”- oh my word. Tears of laughter. ROTFL. That is the funniest, most well-written humor EVER! It would get you hired on as an SNL writer. We “survivors of the 80’s fashion scene” have to stick together. Thanks to you we can do that. Thanks for the laughs and tears…..Happy New Year!
